The technology is expected to increase safety, improve ground operations, and reduce fuel emissions, in line with the airport’s sustainable management goals.

El Dorado Airport CEO Natalí Leal said: “Technology is a cross-cutting element in our entire operation, a strategic ally that allows us to ensure the proper functioning of the airport terminal and enhance the experiences we offer to travellers and the entire airport community.

“By implementing this software, we continue to strengthen El Dorado’s technological ecosystem, supported by the appropriate use of artificial intelligence.”

By leveraging data-driven insights, El Dorado and its airline partners aim to streamline processes and make more strategic decisions. In September 2024, Synaptic Aviation introduced its latest audio AI solution, which accurately detects when an aircraft’s auxiliary power unit (APU) is in use.
